Trevor Phillips just tore apart Keir Starmer’s disastrous time in office. “How did a man who won a landslide victory in 2024 become so disliked by so many people so quickly, that even his own party’s candidate in Makerfield promised to get rid of him?” Phillips begins by noting that Starmer “lacks the common touch” and “he obviously made mistakes. The winter fuel debacle for example”. In a scathing verdict, he went on to explain: “I think what did for Starmer is he promised to put country before party and on every occasion he had the chance to keep his word, he broke it.” “The country wanted the two child cap on benefits, the party hated it. The country said it was time to cut welfare and boost defence, the party said that was unconscionable. The country cheered when the Pakistani-heritage Home Secretary said she’d demand more from migrants before they’d be allowed to settle permanently. Party activists called her un-British and racist.” “In each case the prime minister chose the party, blamed someone else for his change of heart, ministers, advisers, civil servants, and threw them under the nearest bus.” A brutal but accurate takedown of a prime minister who betrayed the country he was elected to serve. Spot on, @TrevorPTweets 👏
